After more than two years, the United States may have exited the so-called pandemic phase of COVID-19, according to top White House adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci.

Fauci, who has been the federal government’s public face for its COVID-19 response and rules, told PBS Newshour on April 26 that “we are certainly right now in this country out of the pandemic phase,” according to a transcript.  When asked whether there will be an end to the pandemic, he responded that it’s an “unanswerable question.”
